Whimsical Creative were so awesome and helped make our wedding extra perfect. We did event planning with them for our wedding and Jackie really went above and beyond. They made me feel like I didn't have to worry about a thing and when a dress malfunction occurred they came to my rescue! They made sure we got to eat and enjoy our wedding. Jackie coordinated all of the vendors absolutely perfectly. It truly was an absolute dream. I felt little stress because I knew they had it all figured out. They did our flowers as well and they were absolutely beautiful. I'll cherish the ones we dried forever. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. They truly made our day whimsical!

Whimsical Creative (Bethan Williamson) was an absolute life saver to make sure our Big Day went off without a hitch. I could not have imagined doing it on my own. They manage vendor communication and timeline setup and they have such a good system for organizing all your vendors, timeline, personal items, etc... I would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding!

Wow! Words cannot describe what an amazing planner Melanie at Whimsical was! She absolutely knew what she was doing. She planned everything amazingly and I cannot be more grateful for the amazing with she did. I had not a single ounce of stress the whole planning process. She contacted all vendors and dealt with everything all I had to do was sign the final contract. I cannot believe how smooth our wedding day went because of Melanie and her Whimsical Creative Team we were calm and just got to live in the moment on the most special day. 💗

Choosing Whimsical Creative was truly the best decision we made when planning our wedding! From the onset, Melanie (our wedding planner) had great communication! As a couple that lives out of state, she made sure to communicate all deadlines within a reasonable amount of time for us to book vendor appointments to accommodate our traveling.
Melanie made the research part of wedding planning 1000% less stressful as she provided a list of vendors for each category (venues, food, photography, djs, etc) that best aligned with our vision. She truly did the legwork in researching whereas all I had to do was the fun part of looking through beautiful photos and meeting wonderful people!
Melanie’s organization was IMPECCABLE! I’m a teacher that is often described as being very organized and Melanie’s organization blew mine out of the water. Whereas I look at the small picture and what’s next now, Melanie helped us with the bigger picture and staying on track with meeting current and future deadlines.
When it came to our wedding vision… we didn’t have one. Melanie advised us to create a pinterest board where she drew inspiration from to create the most beautiful design plan! From the linens to the custom-made chandelier, Melanie created the wedding of our dreams! Everything was truly perfection!
Not only did they make our wedding look like a dream they made sure it felt like a dream. We spent our wedding day celebrating with each other and our guests never having to think about anything else because we knew Melanie and her team had everything under control.
To showcase their amazingness even further, Whimsical Creative planned our Rehearsal Dinner as well! We are SO grateful to have had them! Twenty- four hours before our Rehearsal Dinner, there was an unexpected change in locations. When Melanie called to inform us, she already had a solution and was working with the rental company to find linens that matched better with our new location. If anyone is a bride’s lifesaver- it’s Melanie!
So if you’re a bride that is on the fence, please know that Whimsical would literally create a door in that fence that would be too beautiful not to walk through to choose them!

Melanie was absolutely fantastic to work with throughout my entire wedding planning process. We met and signed a contract in October 2023 for a December 2024 wedding date. I opted for partial planning as I had booked some vendors already and wanted to share the load in decisions. From the start, I knew Melanie was smart, organized, and had vision. She does an amazing job both advocating for your desires but also incorporating her expertise to give an alternate opinion.
As the months continued, I started to feel a little nervous as life continues to throw curve balls. I called Melanie in an emotional pickle and she reassured me. She talked me down, listened to my concerns, and then walked me through a path of next steps to tackle together.
On the wedding day, there was a massive curveball that 100% would have ruined my partner and I’s wedding. Melanie mitigated the situation with my husband and father- making sure I did not know what would’ve been a catastrophe. I had the most amazing wedding day ever. It was only till I got home that my husband told me what happened. And how Melanie was a STANDOUT.
If you want someone who has your back in the planning months and also can finesse day-of hurdles- absolutely consider Melanie as your number one choice.

Whimsical Events has an amazing team that took so much stress off our shoulders when it came to the wedding. Their planning portal made it super easy to have all of our vendors, decor, etc. all in the same place. Jackie was phenomenal as our day-of coordinator and made it so we could actually enjoy the day instead of stressing out about all the details.

Karli is an exceptional wedding planner whose organizational prowess and creative vision made our special day truly unforgettable. She meticulously orchestrated every detail, from the stunning floral arrangements to the perfect scent and elegant linens, ensuring that each element seamlessly complemented the next. Her dedication and attentiveness were evident throughout the planning process, and she was always available to address any questions or concerns with grace and professionalism. I am ever so grateful to her for going above and beyond, even advocating on our behalf when needed. Thanks to her, our wedding was nothing short of a dream come true. Thank you Karli!

For the longest time I was debating whether or not to get a day-of coordinator for my wedding- I ultimately pulled the trigger and I can’t stress enough how much it helped. From ensuring all vendors (of which there end up being way more than you think) were on the same page, to decor set up, dress bustling etc, and of course ensuring flow of events during the day are perfect, it was absolutely essential, and Whimsical Creative make it extremely easy. I wanted to give a special shoutout to Bethan (our main coordinator) and her assistant, Jen, who made my wedding so smooth and stress free. If you’re on the fence just do it, and go with Whimsical Creative!!!

We had a wonderful experience with Whimsical Creative from start to finish. From their communication, resources, planning portal, support, and being available to answer our questions or give advice any time made the planning process so seamless for us. The calls and meetings were very efficient, and they made sure to understand what we wanted and how they can best assist so the day runs as smooth as possible. Melanie helped me nail down my vision and made it so beautiful! The team was personable which we appreciated. I believe anyone on the Whimsical team is great - there was a last-minute switch up and Bethan came in and went above and beyond for us. Our day ran so smoothly, and we did not have to worry about one thing. She came so prepared and was on top of everything – she executed everything so perfectly and we are so thankful! The two assistants the day of were also great and helped run a seamless event…. we received many compliments on the flow of everything! We could not recommend Whimsical Creative enough! Thank you all for making our day everything we could’ve imagined!!!

[[[Event Manager: Jen, 5/5]]]
MVP of the days leading up to the wedding and the actual day of. Detail-oriented, professional, and responsive. Coordinated vendors and individual parties throughout. This woman (and her assistant) are THE reason our wedding ran smoothly, and she was there from start to finish to ensure the couple was happy (and hydrated). #givethewomanaraise
[[[Design Manager (and Owner): Karli, 5/5]]]
Translated my disorganized and garbled ideas into the wedding of our dreams. Could not ask for a better visionary.
[[[Cherish, 5/5]]]
Honestly not sure what her official job title is, but facilitated our meetings early on, and was always a happy, bubbly face when we walked in the door. Got our energy up, and got us excited to talk about wedding things. Great representative of the company!

Jackie was amazing! She was very detail oriented, and I especially appreciated her after one vendor call that went strange. She handled it so well, and the vendor was fine the day of the wedding. She kept us on time and prioritized what we cared about - getting to the dance floor! We were so thankful for Jackie! Also, I loved that Whimsical provided access to Aisle Planner, which I used quite a bit for my own personal planning as I used Whimsical as only a month of coordinator.

We worked with Karli Himarios at Whimsical Creative to plan a wedding in 4 months. Karli was unstoppable in planning and executing the wedding of our dreams. The event was magnificent and our guests were extremely pleased.
Karli has a lot of experience and it shows. No matter what questions we asked, she always had cogent, confident responses. Throughout the planning process she followed a preset schedule that gave us time and flexibility to make decisions. She worked around our schedules and it felt like she valued our time.
At the event, Karli seemed to be everywhere at once. She and her team did an incredible job. We placed a lot of trust in Karli and we are sure you can too. Thank you Karli and the whole team at Whimsical!

Melanie/Whimsical Creative was a lifesaver for all aspects of wedding planning and event day coordination. She helped us from the start of the planning phase and developed a mood board book for us to take while meeting with vendors. She also had creative suggestions to make the decor customized and on point with the bride's vision of her perfect day. She kept us organized and on task throughout the entire process. Being the Mother of the Bride for a large wedding with close to 300 guests in attendance and a large wedding party, I tended to get overwhelmed and frantic at times. Melanie's calm, methodical demeanor and personal touch was much needed to calm the nerves and stress. She was such a valuable resource and sounding ear for the entire wedding planning process and day of execution. We couldn't have pulled off the perfect, magical event without her. We definitely recommend Whimsical Creative!!!

Hiring Whimsical Creative to help with my wedding was the best decision I could have made. I had them for full service planning as well as florals and it couldn’t have been better. Karli was an absolute DREAM to work with. She is great at what she does, very professional, and so super sweet. Like I want to be her best friend! She helped me to execute my vision for my wedding day flawlessly. I seriously could not have done it without her. She also worked our wedding on her anniversary! How sweet. And Melanie did the same with my floral vision! I seriously could not recommend them enough.

The Whimsical Creative team was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding. I worked with them for both planning (I chose the partial planning package) and florals. My husband and I wanted our wedding to be bright, fun, and full of joy. Karli, Melanie, and their entire team took that theme and made it a thousand times more beautiful than we could have hoped. Karli is a wonderful resource for questions, contacts, vendor recommendations while also being a source of creative inspiration and reassurance when I wasn’t sure how things would come together. Melanie is absolutely an artist whose medium is florals. Our guests raved and raved about how stunning our wedding was - ceremony and reception. All the tactical details the guests didn’t see - like Karli running to CVS for me just before the reception started because I needed eyelash glue - are what make the Whimsical team so professional. I recommend Whimsical Creative whole-heartedly and am so glad I found them!!!

Karli and everyone at Whimsical Creative were beyond amazing. I looked forward to every step of the planning process for my wedding and had fun the whole time with no stress. Their creativity, professionalism and communication are unmatched to anyone I have ever worked with. Even two months after my wedding we still get compliments on how smoothly everything went and how beautiful every single detail was on our special day. If you don’t use Karli and her team you are missing out on the best planner and design/floral team out there.

Working with Whimsical Creative was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Melanie and Karli were always professional and organized. But the real MVP of my wedding day was my wedding coordinator, Jackie!
I can't imagine how my wedding day would have gone without her coordination, vendor help and advice. She was always a calming presence and made me feel comfortable and heard. Having her as my wedding coordinator was the very best decision I made in the entire planning process. Thank you for everything, Jackie!

Whimsical Events planned my April wedding and it was a very disappointing experience. When they presented design ideas to me, I felt as if they were offended if I did not like some of their ideas or wanted to change anything. These tense interactions only contributed to me feeling very stressed during the planning process. I am a nightshift nurse who was planning our Conroe wedding from Austin, so I passed a lot of planning responsibilities off to my mom, especially the last couple weeks before the wedding. They were not particularly kind to my mom, and acted like any changes we wanted to make were a huge bother to them. Also, they mentioned they like to be an "advocate for the couple" when family is trying to interfere in a response to my mom's review of our experience with them. If they had thought my mom was going over my head to plan the wedding without my consent, they could have just reached out to ask me, but they did not. On the actual wedding day, Cherish was standoffish toward my mom, and she also managed to offend my mother in law by giving her orders about what she could be doing to help. This only served to increase my stress on the day of the wedding. Overall, I would not recommend their planning services.

Where do I even start when describing how amazing Karli, Cherish, and Melanie are? I was never someone who perfectly pictured their wedding, I just kinda knew what I did and didn’t like at other wedding. Let me tell you- I was BLOWN AWAY by what Whimsical Events came up with. I told Karli to go crazy and work her magic and I’ve been told by everyone that ours was the most beautiful wedding they had been to. Karli is truly the “Patrick Mahomes of wedding planning” as my now husband says. In my wildest dreams I could not imagine a more perfect wedding- all of which I attribute to Karli, Cherish, and Melanie. Karli took my random ideas and turned them into something tangible- she helped me figure out a vibe, a color scheme that I loved, and really helped us figure out what our priorities were. We stated from the beginning that we wanted a party to celebrate with our friends and family and that food and drinks were a major priority. Karli immediately started brainstorming vendors and ideas- things that I definitely would not have been able to do on my own. I personally hate decision making, but Karli made it so easy and I never felt overwhelmed in the process. When it came to flowers, I just knew that I wanted lots of color and creativity- I didn’t just want roses. As soon as I met Melanie, I knew we were floral soulmates. Whimsical doing both planning and florals meant that everyone was on the same page and were working towards the same objective. Cherish was such a calming presence leading up to the big day- the poor woman was answering my last minute emails and assuring me that everything would be okay, and if not, she would handle it. On our actual wedding day, Cherish killed it! Both of my parents have said how impressed they were with the design and Cherish’s direction. Thanks to Whimsical Events, we've received nothing but compliments, with multiple people saying that we had the best wedding they've ever been to. Words will never express the gratitude I feel- I never felt like Whimsical Events were just wedding planners, I felt like they were friends that just happened to put together amazing weddings. My suggestion is to be open-minded and see what Karli can put together- me and my husband both were amazed to see her design plan and she has an awesome eye for design. Hiring them was probably one of the best decisions we ever made and we gladly give them all the credit. They truly helped create the best day of my life, which I never would have been able to have without their ideas and guidance.

If you’re looking for a wedding planner, here you have a team of them! We thought that we could take care of everything all by ourselves but we were wrong! We got married at the Crystal Ballroom at the Rice and Whimsical Events is one of the preferred venders.
They are the most competent wedding planners! Jen, Karli, and Cherish are amazing talented professionals, and such cool people. They made the whole process of planning our wedding fun and stress free. From every vendor they recommended to every small detail, everything was so amazing. I can’t get over of how perfect was my wedding day was! Whimsical Events, we love you and we are forever grateful!

I can not speak highly enough of Karli, Melanie and the entire Whimsical Events team. We used Whimsical for our decor planning, rentals, bouquets and day-of-planning (which is truly month of planning). My only regret is not using Whimsical from day one to help plan the entire event. They take the time to truly understand your vision, and to make sure you've thought through every aspect of what is needed to coordinate all of your vendors. By working with Melanie, we were able cut part of our decor budget in half by renting through them instead of buying things we wouldn't use again. They are so passionate about their clients and you truly feel like you have one of your best friends by your side doing whatever they can to give you and your loved ones the best day. If you're considering Whimsical, I recommend meeting with them. You will see what we saw in that quick 30 minute conversation - they are professional, knowledgeable, have the connections and the positive energy you want when trusting someone to make the vision you've worked so hard on come to life.

We booked Whimsical Events for our wedding planning and florals and they were absolutely fantastic! Melanie handled our florals and Kasey was our day-of-coordinator. I truly don't think our wedding would've turned out the way it did without their help. Melanie perfectly captured our vision with our florals and created the most beautiful arrangements for our Fall wedding! Kasey literally kept us sane and did such an amazing job working with all our vendors and organizing every detail of the wedding. Just from our initial meeting with her, we knew we were in the right hands and could easily trust her with everything. It was the best feeling waking up the day of the wedding without any stress and we owe it all to Kasey! Overall, this team was such a dream to work with and we can't thank them enough! Now, I'm trying to come up with any excuse to throw some kind of big party just to be able to work with them again.

We used Whimsical Events for design planning, coordination and florals. Karli knocked it out of the park with design and made the entire wedding planning process so much easier by taking that off my plate. If you are not getting full planning done, just the design option was well worth it! Whimsical also did my florals. Having the design and florals through one vendor was so convenient working with Karli and Melanie! I wish I could post pictures, as everything was so gorgeous. Lastly, Jackie and Cherish were A-team coordinators. Jackie helped me leading up to the day by making sure I was checking all the boxes, and had everything ready to go day-of. Jackie and Cherish were so amazing on the wedding day. They truly saved the day by fixing all the things I forgot or messed up. I was amazed by their creativity and positivity.
I would recommend this team of all-star ladies to anyone!

Working with Whimsical Events was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding. Cherish was my coordinator and she is an angel on Earth! I was able to fully enjoy my wedding day without any stress or worry and I owe it all to her. She corresponded with all my vendors, kept us on schedule, and if anything went wrong the day of, I had no idea - and that's exactly what you want in a wedding coordinator/planner.
I absolutely recommend Whimsical Events!

Stop what you're doing right now and book Whimsical for your planning needs. Seriously, we got so much more from them than we expected.
Melanie fully understood our vibe in the planning meeting and Jackie and Cherish made sure everything went off without a hitch! Even when the bride and man of honor left the ring at the hotel they ran back and got it no questions asked! We couldn't have had the wedding we did without planning and probably not without the planning from Whimsical!
Whimsical also did our florals, and absolutely nailed it. I wish I could review them twice because the flowers deserve their own post! We went with a jungly, prehistoric vibe since our wedding was in the museum and it was better than perfect. My bride's bouquet (yes a floral review from a groom, that's how amazing it was) was exactly what she wanted, and the matching boutonnieres were incredible.

Cherish was the main planner and was really helpful. She was super flexible, easy to talk to, organized and really efficient. She was super communicative and great at speaking to vendors. Kasey the second planner on the day of was so nice as well! Guests loved both of them and truthfully made the whole day feel so seem less and I really had nothing to think about other than enjoying the day.

Karli at Whimsical Events was so much fun to work with. We interviewed quite a few planners but as soon as we spoke with her we knew our search was over. It felt like we clicked so well right from the first zoom call. Our wedding day turned out completely magical and exactly perfect for us as a couple. She was totally on board to make it our day when I asked for things like bunch at dinner time, a wedding bounce house, and a ceremony where our guests sat in a spiral. She was so helpful for every step of the process (we went with the full planning) coming to all the vendor meetings, brainstorming with us together and working until she brought every detail of dream wedding to life.
Cherish was also fabulous, she came on board our team the last month or so leading up the the wedding, and she and Karli did such an amazing job finalizing every last detail and making sure everything was squared away with our vendors. They really went above an beyond when I lost my grandmother weeks before my wedding and not only were accommodating in changing the times of our meetings, but in taking on those last minute details that were so important to me but that I just no longer had time for.
They were both so helpful, professional, and fun during our rehearsal and the entire wedding day. I lost count of how many times I asked Cherish to re-bustle my wedding dress after dancing or bouncing to my hearts content and she was always ready to help me with a smile.
I already miss working with them and would recommend them to all my family and friends.

If you're thinking about hiring Whimsical Events for your wedding, DO IT! I worked with them for both wedding month-of coordination and florals and absolutely loved it. Cherish handled everything so professionally and familiarized herself with every contract that I booked even before our first meeting. Seeing how capable she is really gave me confidence in letting her handle all vendor communication during the month of the wedding so that I could focus on other things. She kept up and executed all the little details that I wanted on my wedding day without skipping a beat. She literally made my life SO EASY on the day of the wedding and everything went so smoothly. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day! Not only is she super organized and thorough, but she's also just the sweetest person to work with and so easy to befriend. I have no doubt that she's going to continue to coordinate successful weddings and make many, many, many more brides happy, as she did for me!
We also worked with Jen as a second coordinator on the day of the wedding. Even though we hadn't communicated prior to the wedding day, Jen knew exactly what was going on, where to be, and what to do. She packed up all of our personal belongings (and we had a LOT) and got them back to us afterward. She and Cherish were really the perfect duo for our wedding day!
Even though this is their main coordination page, I have to also say that their florals BLEW ME AWAY!!! My guests couldn't stop complimenting how beautiful the flowers were and they perfectly executed my vision and brought my dream wedding day to life. I loved loved loved the variety of flowers and colors they incorporated into the design and I will be dreaming about those flowers for the rest of my life.
Overall, I couldn't praise the work that Whimsical Events did for me more and I highly recommend them to any bride looking for wedding coordination and floristry! 10/10!

Karli is exactly what we were looking for in a wedding coordinator and we could not have pulled off such a fun event without her! We initially thought we could handle wedding planning ourselves but quickly realized how much WORK goes into it. We booked most of our vendors before getting in touch with Whimsical Events but you would have never known (myself included!). Karli's knowledge of, and great relationships with, our vendors was extremely helpful and made everything run smoothly. Karli is responsive, thorough, and relatable. I can't emphasize each of those qualities enough! She truly made the whole process seem like we were working with a friend. Karli ran with our vision and was on top of everything, from coordinating with vendors and creating a seamless timeline, to offering advice on ways to make our day tailored to us as a couple, and even just checking in. We were both able to fully enjoy our wedding day knowing Karli had everything handled. I am so grateful to have had the help of the Whimsical Events team in the months prior to and on the day of our wedding. Don't stress, get in touch with Karli!

Karli and Melanie are the best! We used Whimsical Events as our planner and florist for both our "micro wedding "and larger wedding celebration. We planned a ceremony with 20 people and a party with 150 people two weeks later. Honestly, we had a limited vision going into the planning and weren't sure exactly what we wanted- nor did we have any idea of colors or anything else. Karli stepped in and helped put together the event we didn't even know we wanted, hitting on all of the little details, and was special to us in the ways that mattered. She helped us to come up with a vision of what we wanted and brought it to life perfectly. We had the most beautiful black and white formal ceremony and a reception full of color! Each event was so much more than we could have ever hoped for.
We were lucky enough to have Melanie with us on our wedding day and Karli with us for the reception. They both were so incredible! The girls and their team made everything come together SEAMLESSLY on our wedding day and made sure all of the stress of the logistics and coordination of both days was perfect. They really took care of us and made sure we were able to have an amazing time with the people we love. As a bride and groom, we threw a blank slate at them and they made it all happen for us. We are so thankful for their great work for us!

We worked with Cherish and Kasey (on a venue level) on a wedding just last weekend and it was a great and smooth experience!
Finding wedding professionals who are amazing is hard to find, and we can't wait to work with these ladies again next month :)
Do yourselves a favor and hire them!

Karli was amazing to work with and made things super easy and efficient. Every vendor we met with was very impressed with how detailed Karli was with the plans. Couldn't have asked for a better experience, worth every penny!!!

I stumbled upon Whimsical Events by chance but it like destiny brought Karli and I together! Alex (my husband) and I are both resident physicians with pretty busy schedules in Galveston. We decided to plan a wedding in Houston with most of our families from out of town. Karli was extremely flexible with our schedules and made time for us even outside of her office hours. I am not a bride who knows exactly what she wants and Karli always presented us with the right number of vendor options that gave us enough variety but not too many options to overwhelm us. She is relatable, enthusiastic and VERY organized. You can tell that she knows exactly what she is doing.
As the weeks leading up to my wedding day approached, my anxiety would wax and wane and Karli was always there to calm me down. My appreciation for her multiplied on my wedding day. Karli and her team made sure all my vendors were on the same page, knew exactly what time to come and set up and coordinated everything perfectly! Thank you Karli and Whimsical Events for all your hardworking in making our big day a dream come true!

Whimsical Events was the perfect fit for wedding planning for us! We did the day of package and Jackie made the process very easy for us. They also helped troubleshoot so many unexpected things that happened on our wedding day and pulled off a fantastic ceremony and reception! I would recommend Whimsical Events to any bride in Houston!

I have had the pleasure of seeing Whimsical Events work their magic at two weddings; my wedding and my best friends wedding--Both being for day of coordination. Whimsical Events is hands down the best company I have ever worked with due to the amazing people that work there! Jackie is the sweetest, most understanding and forsure knows how to coordinate a wedding. I was stress free the entire wedding day because she was handling everything in a timely manner and making sure I wasn't stressed about ANYTHING. I also got to work with Cherish later in the evening, she is so kind hearted and also so awesome at what she does. She had everything handled later in the evening and made sure I was out the door without worrying about anything being left behind. Overall, Jackie and Cherish were such a great team to work with and we are so very lucky we had them coordinate our wedding day! Whimsical Events is definitely the place to go if you are looking for a Wedding Coordinator.

As MOB I wanted a planner that I could trust to make our special day run as care free for us as possible. From the moment we hired and met Melanie she was there for us every step of the way!
All of the pricing was fair and transparent with no surprises, and boy, did she and her team deliver! All the pre planning and meetings really paid off because they understood exactly what my Daughter wanted to create for her big day. From the timeline to creating the feel and mood of the day at both the Church and at Sandlewood Manor, Melanie and her team were there for us! I cannot express how important this was except to say that I was so confident that everything would be taken care of that I pulled my daughter aside first thing that morning as we began to get ready and told her to let go of all the things she may be worried about because we had a great team to take care of everything! We felt we could trust them! My goal was to have everyone enjoy the day and have FUN!!!
I even got a compliment from the videographer that I was the most calm MOB he had ever worked with and that’s because I knew everything would be taken care of! Thank you Melanie for helping us create such a beautiful and fun wedding, we still get compliments from family and friends that it was their favorite wedding they have attended!
As a side note, my son just got engaged and I already told them I have a wedding planner for them, so, here we go again!!!!

Melanie made all of my boho wedding dreams a reality. Her ideas led the direction of the wedding design and made it all come together exactly the way I pictured in my head.
From the moment you walk into their offices, you can tell their design prowess. The same shows through in their floral design (as I hired them for both planning and floral). The design of everything from the centerpieces to bouquets we’re all fabulous.
The weeks leading up to my wedding were stress free because of these ladies. I only had partial planning, but Melanie contacted all my vendors and coordinated the timeline to perfection.
Highly recommend both Melanie and Karli if you’re a bride who wants a stress-free (as much as it can be amiright) and access to some of the top vendors in the Houston area. Not only did she give me a list of recommendations, but they all knew her work and spoke highly of her.

Melanie was great to work with! My daughter and I needed someone to give us direction and give advice and she gave us a perfect wedding day. At the end of the night my husband and I both said we wouldn’t have changed a thing. It was better than we hoped for!

The team at Whimsical Events is simply amazing! We've had to postpone our wedding reception multiple times and Melanie helped organizing the date change with multiple vendors. Choosing Whimsical Events was the best decision we made through the whole wedding planning process! Without them, there was no way we'd be able to put together our wedding vision without breaking the bank! Melanie was our planner/florist and Jackie was our wedding coordinator and they were an amazing duo in making sure we addressed every single detail (no detail was too small!). They helped us stay on track time wise and stay within budget, never hesitating to offer more affordable alternatives to achieve the same effect. We also booked them to do our floral arrangements and it was amazing! I literally gave Melanie a list of adjectives and she was able to capture the feelings exactly! The florals are our wedding were so gorgeous that I was in tears when we entered the venue for the first time. Communicating with them was so easy, they were always so readily available and so knowledgeable that it was easy to talk to them whenever any issues arose! We had so many problems with finalizing our guest list (even up to 3 days till our wedding date) and Melanie and Jackie were able to coordinate with our other vendors so quickly that we were able to settle all discrepancies within the day! My other vendors have also commented on how great and effective their communication was! I could go on and on about how amazing Whimsical Events are, but it would literally be pages long because I'm so grateful that they were able to create my dream wedding! I literally entered the wedding planning process only knowing I wanted a romantic and whimsical event, and they were able to produce a wedding that exceeded all my expectations! My family and friends could not stop talking about how beautiful our floral arrangements were or how classy and elegant the decor was! We just love our team from Whimsical Events and are so so so very thankful to have had them plan our wedding! Words cannot begin to even express our gratitude!

Words don't describe how incredibly happy and blessed my fiancé and I were to have Karli as my wedding planner and Melanie as the florist! I initially came across the company on instagram and felt just drawn to their amazing photos of the past weddings they've done. After the initial meeting, it was set. We absolutely loved Karli and booked Whimsical Events! Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Karli was there every step of the way and made me feel less stressed overall. (People who know me know I get stressed easily lol). She not only answered any and every question I had on a whim, but was extremely knowledgeable and was on top of every vendor and contract. I also gave her an overall vibe I wanted of the event, and she did it perfectly!! To a T! She always knew what I wanted or any concerns before I even brought them up to her. Truly a mind reader and knows exactly what her client wants! We had a lot of last minute changes the week of the wedding (extended every vendor 1.5 hours more) and she handled all of this with no issue and well. The day of, I couldn’t have imagined without her. She handled probably more to my knowledge behind the scenes and kept up with my fiancé and I to ensure we were having a good time, enabled alone time, and always helped us with logistics of the day! :)
The florals were absolutely stunning as well. I again gave Melanie a few pics and a broad idea but she executed exactly what I wanted for the bouquets and florals throughout the venues. Everyone kept complimenting how perfect they were!
The team at Whimsical Events is not only professional and prompt, but extremely accommodating and fun to work with. They made my wedding day perfect. A true vision that I couldn't believe. I can’t wait to refer this company to anyone. I love Karli and the whole team.

Karli and Whimsical Events were amazing for our wedding! We got married at a church then had the reception at the Bell Tower which required a ton of logistic planning and vendor coordination. As soon as I handed it over to Karli about 6 weeks out I really didn't worry about it it at all because she was so on top of everything! Being a bride only once, you don't know what questions to ask so it was amazing to have her help and guidance the weeks leading up to the wedding with final details discussions to ensure the day was perfect. Karli & Whimsical Events were super responsive to all of my questions even before they were technically 'on contract' which I think speaks a lot. The pricing was also super reasonable and I did a ton of research. I can't thank Karli enough and would definitely recommend her as well as Whimsical Events for future brides.

Karli and Melanie are the dynamic duo and we are so glad we did both planning and coordination with Whimsical Events. Our wedding came together like magic. We worked mainly with Karli; She was fun and energetic and great to work with. That she loves what she does shows in every thing she does and she’s great at it to boot. If you are looking for an organized, creative, and adaptable planner, look no further. They have an extensive set of relationships with vendors at every price range and can give specific recommendations for your needs. There is nothing you can throw at these two that they can’t navigate.
